Nova Bree Steele is on the run after witnessing a murder in San Francisco. She hitchhikes to a ranch in the heart of the Rocky Mountains in search of Joe Crawford, a good man she heard could help her.
Modern-day cowboy, Luke Barrett rescues a rare Curly Sulphur Mustang from poachers in Disappointment Valley, Colorado. He and Bree join the efforts of a doctor working to save the Curly Sulphur Mustang breed from extinction. Relationships are forged with strength and courage to find their purpose.
Their lives, and the life of a rare mustang collide in the crosshairs of greedy men and the San Francisco Syndicate. They must find common ground and learn to work together, or they won’t survive the pursuits of evil men.
Based on actual events.

Betty!!! How I loved watching your interview with Deena. Your face simply came alive with pure joy as you spoke of the day you were saved & how the Holy Spirit came into your life! And from your discussion….. it’s clear you have kept Jesus at the center of your life & your writing career.
Blessings to you & your “muse” aka your “hubby!”

You had me intrigued at the mention of the story was based on true events. The second thing that stood out is the room you are in looks like you might live in a log cabin style home. My perfect living would be a log cabin by the ocean LOL. I too had done art (drawing or painting) first and I am writing my first book right now. Memoir in the middle of editing but it is getting closer to being published.
Deena Adams
Thanks so much for adding to the conversation, Teresa! I asked Betty before we started recording the interview if she lived in a log cabin, and she does! It sounds so cozy to live in a cabin in Colorado. Congratulations on getting close to publication!
